The great Liliputing Logo design competition of 2008 has drawn to a close. And now I have to go and pick some winners. This is going to be tough, because a lot of great entries came in. Rather than make the decision all by my lonesome, I thought I’d ask y’all for some help.
Below you can find my favorite entries. I need to whittle the list down to the top three so I can award some prize money. And of course, I’d like to pick one to use as the new logo for Liliputing. I can’t promise that the crowd favorite will be the winner, but if you’d like to weigh in, know that your opinion matters to me.
Thanks to the limitations of online polling services, this poll includes thumbnails of the images. But if you click on any image, you can see a larger version. Keep in mind, the logo will almost definitely be going in the same spot on the site as the existing logo. A few designs would look better above the navbar, but I don’t want to push the actual content too far down the page, and I can’t afford to get rid of the ad atop the site (at least not yet).
So, who do you like? Feel free to discuss in the comments. I’ll be out of town and offline for much of the weekend, but I hope to make a decision early next week.
Update: I’ve added some numbers to the poll to make it easier to see who’s ahead. This is my first time using Polldaddy and I didn’t realize how difficult this would be without numbering.

None of them really do much of anything for me, but of the ones shown the one that does anything is:

This is a FUN design!
I like the one w/ little men…..very unique!!! Think outside the box! Letters get boring even if they are “clean, red , or sleek”.
anyone like mine?
I really like the little men securing the laptop too… But in the end I was swayed by the elegance of Henry Gretzinger #1.

The red one from Lindsey, creative, catching and very clear, despite the i shifted up. A really good one!

I don’t really like any of them.
I had a thought about one with a laptop sitting on a giant postage-stamp , or some other big/small comparison logo.
These machine are also for people, not businesses. So I would look for a more colourful apple-style logo than a corporate one.
uh… where’s the color in the apple logo??
The gold on the white background is the cleanest, although I think I’d pull the bylines off the extended letters. – but it seems like there should be something clever to go with the (tres) clever name. Something like a big thumb and forefinger spanning a little computer in there, somewhere…

I like the idea behind the lilliputians securing the laptop, but it seems backwards to the idea of the site. Maybe a giant foot with lots of little computers would have been better.
